Someone Else's Twin: The True Story of Babies Switched at Birth

The combination of a riveting true story and cutting-edge twin research makes this book an irresistible page-turner.

Identical twins BegoÃ±a and Delia were born thirty-eight years ago in Spainâ€™s Canary Islands. Due to chaotic conditions at the hospital or simple human error, the unthinkable happened: Delia was unintentionally switched with another infant in the baby nursery. This fascinating story describes in vivid detail the consequences of this unintentional separation of identical twin sisters. The author considers not only the effects on these particular sisters, but the important implications of this and similar cases for questions concerning identity, familial bonds, nature-nurture, and the law.
